​No current interest in West Brom striker Berahino

West Brom boss Tony Pulis has revealed no bids have been made for unsettled striker Saido Berahino.

The 22-year-old's future with the Baggies is once again under intense scrutiny with Tottenham, Newcastle, Chelsea and Stoke all reportedly interested.

"The club has not received any offers at all, so everything is pure speculation. People talk and you can't stop people talking," the West Brom manager said.

"I've been more disappointed for Saido - if you look at the two different spectres, the lad at EvertonJohn Stones has reacted really well from not leaving Everton and Saido hasn't, and that's no disrespect to Saido or anyone else, they are just different characters.

"Saido has taken it a different way but he has been good round the place and that's all we can ask him to be."

"I told him at the beginning of the window 'the circus starts again, just concentrate on your football' and if something happens, something happens. I think he understands that from the last window," he added.

"Unless he's sold now or tomorrow or the next day, it is going to go through to the last day because you journalists will keep asking about it - it's a good story."
